Bio

Lush and dreamy love-songy guitar pop...Brit-like vocal quality and classic hit-movie song structure...this man has a knack for sucking you in. With his sexy handle on harmony and an intimate relationship with the space that surrounds sound, that place where the music meets silence, where the manifested meets the unmanifested...textures from both the watery worlds and stripped-down, earthy ones...the beauty of his originality is that there is no single personality here, but a surprisingly diverse cross-section of a huge musical outlook that is otherwise known as Erik Penny.


Erik Penny, Neu-Berliner nach 10 Jahren in Los Angeles, stellt sich und sein neues Album "The Linger Kiss" vor. Seine unverwechselbare Mischung aus Americana, Indie und Singer-Songwriter Musik war in den vergangenen Jahren in mehreren Film- und Fernsehproduktionen u.a. bei MTV und Lifetime zu hören. Sein musikalisches Zuhause in Los Angeles war "The Hotel Cafe", so erschien sein Song "Extraordinary" auch auf der CD "Live at The Hotel Cafe, Vol. One" gemeinsam mit Künstlern wie Gary Jules und Jim Bianco. Im Frühjahr 2008 tourte er als Support für Gus Black in Deutschland und der Schweiz.
